gdb/python: allow Frame.read_var to accept named arguments

This commit allows Frame.read_var to accept named arguments, and also
improves (I think) some of the error messages emitted when values of
the wrong type are passed to this function.

The read_var method takes two arguments, one a variable, which is
either a gdb.Symbol or a string, while the second, optional, argument
is always a gdb.Block.

I'm now using 'O!' as the format specifier for the second argument,
which allows the argument type to be checked early on.  Currently, if
the second argument is of the wrong type then we get this error:

  (gdb) python print(gdb.selected_frame().read_var("a1", "xxx"))
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  RuntimeError: Second argument must be block.
  Error while executing Python code.
  (gdb)

After this commit, we now get an error like this:

  (gdb) python print(gdb.selected_frame().read_var("a1", "xxx"))
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  TypeError: argument 2 must be gdb.Block, not str
  Error while executing Python code.
  (gdb)

Changes are:

  1. Exception type is TypeError not RuntimeError, this is unfortunate
  as user code _could_ be relying on this, but I think the improvement
  is worth the risk, user code relying on the exact exception type is
  likely to be pretty rare,

  2. New error message gives argument position and expected argument
  type, as well as the type that was passed.

If the first argument, the variable, has the wrong type then the
previous exception was already a TypeError, however, I've updated the
text of the exception to more closely match the "standard" error
message we see above.  If the first argument has the wrong type then
before this commit we saw this:

  (gdb) python print(gdb.selected_frame().read_var(123))
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  TypeError: Argument must be a symbol or string.
  Error while executing Python code.
  (gdb)

And after we see this:

  (gdb) python print(gdb.selected_frame().read_var(123))
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  TypeError: argument 1 must be gdb.Symbol or str, not int
  Error while executing Python code.
  (gdb)

For existing code that doesn't use named arguments and doesn't rely on
exceptions, there will be no changes after this commit.
